    Can I give you another tip when doing this? Use a laser printer instead of an inkjet otherwise the text can be smudged if they get wet taking them to the post office or the postie delivering at the other end. I learned this through many years doing mail order this way. Keep up the videos! Love your tips.

      Thanks for bringing up a good point. I've been having to sacrifice one entire sheet of sticker paper for a shipping label. I'm a brand new shop still, so I have only had to do this 3 times so far. I'm gonna try her idea, but I don't have a laser printer, just inkjet. Hopefully I can find something that wont bleed if it gets wet. My current sticker sheets do not bleed, as I just tested out thanks to your comment. I hadn't even thought about bleeding ink, so thank you!

    It's not even that thermal printers are expensive, which they kind of are, but my issue was that even with the highest end thermal printers, scanners struggled to recognize the QR codes and barcode, those printers are challenging to setup, and ur day could easily go south if the shipping label you're attempting to print is not that of a common platform such as DHL or UPS etc..
    Since i've been using my local shipping carriers, i've had to undergo extra steps for no reason. That said though there are some 300DPI thermal printers out there, they are pricy but i haven't used one myself but i've heard nice things about them.
    Back to regular ink printers i went, rendering my thermal label printer useless. If there's one advice i can give, is to do a lot of digging about thermal printers before checking out that cart thinking it would solve all your issues.

    • @yankis.
      @yankis. Год назад +1

      Thermal printers are dirt cheap, the secret is to buy them used. Those things last ages anyways.

    I just read that maybe using an inkjet printer, if it gets wet, the ink will smear and become illegible. So I plan to use clear tape over the labels which should still scan ok.

      They're harder to scan so you risk packages getting delayed or lost. Don't put tape on the barcode and you should be fine.

      @grantmail4112 Год назад

      @@Sulfen Thanks, I also heard that before I started, been doing this for about a year without having any parcels going missing or scanning issues, but yeah a thing you can do is clear tape the rest of the label and leave the barcode area open if you're worried about clear taping the whole label.

  • @ac-jv3le

    Great idea, but would it be cheaper in the long run to invest in a thermal label printer than forking out £40-£60 a month on ink cartridges? Many thanks!

    • @creativesmallbusinessclub
      @creativesmallbusinessclub  Год назад +2

      This video is for new small business owners who are starting out. If you're getting lots of orders and printing 100s of labels every month then yes... a thermal label printer is well worth the investment.

    Some label paper can be expensive so you can just use normal A4 paper then cut it out and use super glue and tape to put it down

      Paying for shipping labels will depend on what shipping service you're using. On Etsy, they take it out of your payment account or if that's empty, they charge the payment type (e.g. bank account, card etc) in your account.

      The orientation of the shipping label depends on the type of postage you're buying. If I remember correctly with Royal Mail it's 1st or 2nd class Letter that is horizontal & all other labels are portrait.
